Grøet, Flæfjellet and Storafjellet (Roundtrip)

Dato:
27.07.2019
Turtype:
Fjelltur
Turlengde:
4:55t
Distanse:
16,5km

Started by taking the bus to Eikedalen (bus stop called Eikedalen Skisenter) and walked along the road up to the start of the ski slopes. From there I followed a steep tractor road west and later north, taking me almost all the way to the summit of Grøet . The final off-road stretch to the summit was straightforward. By now the light breeze had picked up quite a bit, which was very welcome on this warm summer day, with temperatures even this high probably being above 25. I made a short detour north for better views down to Kvitingvatnet, before turning east to Flæfjellet , soon coming across a trail/animal track that I could easily follow all the way to the summit. I did make another short detour south just before reaching the summit though, just to be able to look down into Eikedalen. At Flæfjellet I enjoyed >>>

Cycling: Osterøybroen

Distanse:
62,8km

Partial trial run to test the feasibility of using the bike as the means of transportation for a visit of Hikletten . Should be doable, but will be a very long trip (more than 120 km for the cycling alone...). However, this test did not include the 400 meters ascent from Bruvik to the parking lot at Båtaleitet , which will clearly be the hardest part. Note: The strange zero meters above sea level in the middle of the profile is actually the crossing of Osterøybroen, which is not picked up when correcting the GPS elevation values.

I left work a bit early and hopped on a bus to Eikedalen with the goal to visit both Børdalsfjellet and Huldabottsfjellet . The schedule for the planned return bus was on the tight side, and did not get any better when I managed to get off the bus one stop too early. Thankfully this only required an extra 500 meters walk along the main road (could have been much worse…). After leaving the main road, I followed an old gravel road up to what I believe is the start of an old ski lift, clearly not used in a long time. It did however provide the trace of an old tractor road that greatly simplified the start of the ascent. When the road ended shortly after crossing the river via an old bridge (I did not see any traces of the road turning south as indicated on the map), I instead turned left (west) and started making my own way >>>
